I found out about mp3 gain first through a word search in google, regarding the need to “normalize” my mp3s. The product looked really good from the website, even though I was a bit skeptical about how well it was going to work on my mp3s. Would I lose sound quality etc.

As I was just about to purchase the gain program, I saw the special selling mp3 doctor. After seeing some of the features available, I figured it would be worth purchasing both together.

I am so glad I did! Both programs worked perfectly.

First I was very impressed with the gain program, and so glad I purchased it. Now I didn’t have to do the “dive for the volume” thing that just drives me crazy when I’m trying to enjoy my music libraries.

But here’s what’s super cool. After already being a completely satisfied customer with the first program, I was equally stoked to have the doctor program.

I’ll share a bit.

The night before purchasing both programs I was going through some of my reggae folders. (I listen to all genres and organize them by genre, then by folders of ones I really love, compared to one’s that are just ok for each type of music)

Well there were a few songs, but especially one that I thought was such a great song, and would’ve been in my favorites list. But the tempo was just a bit too fast, and I like a real chill tempo in my reggae. That very night I was thinking, “damn, if only this song were a bit slower it would be perfect, but the tempo is just up a bit too much and it ruins the chillen feeling of the song.

Well, after playing with mp3 gain and leveling out all my tracks, I decided to start playing around with the doctor, seeing that one of the features was tweaking the tempo, without losing the integrity of the song, or changing the pitch.

By using doctor to slow down the track by 11% (this was the best tempo to my taste) the song is now PERFECT, and one of my favorites in the batch of my favorite reggae folder. You don’t know how cool it was to be able to adjust a song that was almost such a waste of good music! AWESOME! Plus I’ve been able to enjoy a few other songs I couldn’t really get into before, by modifying them in a similar and as needed.

Absolutely love both programs! Thanks so much for making them! Both are well worth the money!
